Grid Project:   Landers/Hector Mine Faults

Purpose of Project

Build a mesh that encompasses the volume of the Landers/Hector Mine earthquakes. Build a mesh that uses the SCEC CFM to define fault geometry and interpolate slip vectors from Yuri Fialko's slip distribution model. Provide output that is compatible with Pylith.

Finite Element Mesh Landers Fault Surface

Design Criteria

• Define fault surface from SCEC CFM
• Define slip on fault based on Yuri Fialko model
• High resolution near fault, low resolution in far field

Project Summary

The Grid Method successfully follows the design criteria.

There are 11 faults. The first number is the interface number, the second two numbers are the material ID numbers of the materials on each side of the fault.
